I thought this was interesting!
Are some pregnant women more likely than others to feel nauseated?
You're more likely to have nausea or vomiting during your pregnancy if any of the following apply:
• You're pregnant with twins or higher multiples. This may be from the higher levels of hCG, estrogen, or other hormones in your system. You're also more likely to have a more severe case than average. On the other hand, it's not a definite thing — some women carrying twins have little or no nausea. (Ummm..... no thanks!)
• You had nausea and vomiting in a previous pregnancy. (Check!)
• You have a history of nausea or vomiting as a side effect of taking birth control pills. This is probably related to your body's response to estrogen. (Yep!)
• You have a history of motion sickness. (Yes again)
• You have a genetic predisposition to nausea during pregnancy. If your mother or sisters had severe morning sickness, there's a higher chance you will, too. (Yep, my mom did but only with her girls)
• You have a history of migraine headaches. (no)
• You're carrying a girl. One study found that women with severe nausea and vomiting were 50 percent more likely to be carrying a girl. (We shall see...)
That's so weird everything says girls cause more morning sickness. For me it was defiantly the opposite. With Kaitlyn i wasn't ever sick and with Landen i was sick 24/7.
ReplyDeleteI know, you're definitely the exception! Maybe your body doesn't like testosterone or something?! I was reading also that you're more likely to have worse morning sickness with your first child as well! You just don't fit any of the studies, lol!!
